A single yellow star serves as the anchor for the Mid-Rim’s Naboo System. Historically, the system – which is named after its primary world, the pastoral Naboo – has been a fairly peaceful and safe region of space. Prior to the Clone Wars, however, the system was rocked by violence when the Trade Federation blockaded the planet Naboo, resulting in a large-scale space battle. In the years that followed, smugglers slipped into the Naboo system in search of a safe haven, while pirates began hunting trade transports traveling to and from peaceful Naboo. Currently, the Empire maintains control over the system, but the travel routes are still plagued by hostile vessels.
Located in the Outer Rim, the Tatoo System is dominated by two binary stars known as the twin suns. Although considered remote by many, the system is a hub for several key hyperspace lanes. The system’s most notable planet – the desert world of Tatooine – actually serves as a nexus for these hyperspace routes and has become the site of numerous orbital battles. Although frequently patrolled by the Empire, the Tatoo system is largely controlled by the lawless Hutts. Various pirate factions, mercenary groups, and smugglers also frequent the system, preying on local transports and making travel through the Tatoo System very dangerous for unseasoned pilots.
Corellian System
The Corellian System is considered part of the “Core Worlds,” those system that make up the heart of the Empire. The system itself is home to five inhabited worlds, including Corellia and Talus. Corellian worlds produce some of the most advanced starship technology in the galaxy. To protect its shipyards and homeworlds, the Corellian system is policed by both local security forces such as CorSec and the Empire. However, the Corellian system is also notorious for its large contingents of smugglers and pirates.
